Subject: i386: fix double accounting in reserve_top_address()
From: "Jan Beulich" <JBeulich@xxxxxxxxxx>

With VMALLOC_END included in the calculation of MAXMEM (as of 2.6.28) it
is no longer correct to also bump __VMALLOC_RESERVE in
reserve_top_address().  Doing so results in needlessly small lowmem.
